Hi, my name’s Tom and I am the walk leader for Aylesbury MWAT.

Like a lot of men growing up, if I ever had issues or problems, I would always keep them to myself and not want to or be able to talk to other people; I would always feel like I was alone. As I have got older I started to notice that, even if I didn’t really talk much, just hanging around with a friend would always help to make me feel slightly better and not think it was just me against everything.

I have become more interested in men’s mental health as time has gone on, through things i have seen in and outside of work, and I recently came across MWAT on social media and really liked the idea. I looked for a group and noticed there wasn’t one local to me, so I decided I would like to become a group leader and see if I can help any other men who feel alone.

You can come to MWAT to just walk, walk and talk, walk and listen or just enjoy some company with like-minded men.
